      I am trying to use the kiss driver in the Linux kernel that is being

      The issue was, that the locking code in mkiss was assuming it was only
      ever being called in process or bh context.  Fixed by converting the
      involved locking code to use irq-safe locks.
      
      Review of other networking line disciplines shows that 6pack, both sync
      and async PPP and STRIP have similar issues.  The ppp_async one is the
      most interesting one as it sorts out half of the issue as far back as
      2004 in commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=2996d8deaeddd01820691a872550dc0cfba0c37d

      tty: Ldisc revamp · a352def2
      Alan Cox authored
      
      Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement.  For
      the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of
      the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it
      all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty.
      
      Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code.

      netdev: Allocate multiple queues for TX. · e8a0464c
      David S. Miller authored
      
      alloc_netdev_mq() now allocates an array of netdev_queue
      structures for TX, based upon the queue_count argument.
      
      Furthermore, all accesses to the TX queues are now vectored
      through the netdev_get_tx_queue() and netdev_for_each_tx_queue()
      interfaces.  This makes it easy to grep the tree for all
      things that want to get to a TX queue of a net device.
      
      Problem spots which are not really multiqueue aware yet, and
      only work with one queue, can easily be spotted by grepping
      for all netdev_get_tx_queue() calls that pass in a zero index.
